CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on the purchase of your Powerware 9 Prestige Series
uninterruptible power system (UPS). The Prestige UPS meets the
toughest measures of superior designand manufacturing, including
ISO 9001. You now own the most reliable power protection available.
The Prestige 3000 provides a steady, well-regulated power supply for
your computing and communications equipment, while protecting it
from the frequent irregularities that are inherent in commercially
available power. Voltage spikes, power surges, brownouts, and power
failures have the potential to corrupt critical data, destroy unsaved work
sessions, and in some instances, damage expensive hardware.
With the Prestige 3000, you can safely eliminate the effects of electrical
line disturbances and guard the integrity of your systems and
equipment. The optional PowerPass
Distribution Module (PPDM) has
a Maintenance Bypass feature that supplies power to yourequipment
even when the UPS electronics are removed for maintenance or
upgrades. Figure 1 shows the Prestige 3000 UPS.

UPS Model and Battery Configurations
This UPS is designed to work with single-phase, three-wire, AC power
sources. There are two important considerations when selecting the UPS
model and battery configuration to properly safeguard your equipment:
Load requirements
Battery times
Load Requirements
The load is the equipment to be protected by the UPS. Select the UPS
model that meets the power consumption requirements of the load in
volt-amperes (VA). The total load VA should not exceed the UPS VA
rating. To determine the total load requirements:
1. Obtain the load ratings from either the nameplate oroperator’s
manual of the equipment to be protected by the UPS. The
ratings are listed in either watts (W), amperes or amperes
max (A), or volt-amperes.
2. If the rating is in watts, multiply by 1.4 to obtain the VA
requirement (this is the typical relationship betweenwatts and
volt-ampere ratings in most computing equipment). However,
in some new computing equipment, the power supply is
power-factor corrected and the watts rating equals the VA
requirement. Check with the manufacturer to determine
applicability.
If the rating is in amperes or amperes max, multiply by the
input voltage to obtain the VA requirement.
3. Add all of the resultant VA ratings together to obtain the total
load requirements of the equipment to be protected (see
Figure 2).If the load consists of the power-factor corrected
supplies, it is recommended to use total watts for the load
requirements.

Figure 2. Volt-Amperes Calculation Example
If the total load requirements of the equipment exceeds the capacity of
the UPS, you must either reduce the number of pieces of equipment, or
use a UPS with a larger load capacity.
When deciding on which pieces of equipment to remove from the UPS,
select equipment that has a lower priority for power protection.
Computers, monitors, and modems typically have a higher priority
because they could be processing or transmitting data when a power
outage occurs.
Battery Times for the Prestige 3000
During a power failure, the UPS battery supplies power to your
equipment, providing time to complete computing activities prior to
UPS shutdown. The duration of this time period is directly related to the
UPS battery configuration. By adding battery cabinets, you can
customize the UPS to provide enough battery time for normal processing
activities.

INSTALLATION
The following sections describe UPS storage requirements and the
installation and startup of the UPS.
Unpacking and Inspection
Carefully unpack the UPS and battery cabinets, making sure to retain
the packaging materials. Examine each unit carefully for any signs of
damage and immediately notify your distributor if damage is present.
UPS and Battery Cabinet Storage
If you plan to store the UPS or battery cabinets prior to use, store them
in a cool, dry environment.Storage temperature should not exceed
35 C(95F)inordertopreservebatterylife.Forlongertermstorage,
energize the UPS and battery cabinet for approximately 8 hours every
90 days in order to maintain battery charge.
Whenever the units are not energized, verify the circuit breaker on all
battery cabinets is returned to the OFF (O) position (see Figure 4 on
page 31).
Selecting an Installation Option
In addition to the standard UPS, the unit has an optional PowerPass
Distribution Module. Use the following flow chart to decide which
installation option is right for you.

additional battery cabinet.
5. Remove the breaker tie from the circuit breaker on all battery
cabinets.
6. Switch the circuit breakeron all battery cabinets to the ON (
)
position.
7. The equipment to be protected by the UPS should be powered
off. Plug the equipment into the power output receptacles on
the UPS rear panel.
DO NOT protect laser printers with the UPS because of the
exceptionally high power requirements of the heating elements.
8. Verify that the load plug is fully seated.
9. Start the UPS according to the following “UPS Startup”
procedure.

UPS Startup
To s tart up the UPS:
1. Turnon the equipment that is connected to the UPS.
2. Plug the UPS power supply cord into the input connector on
the UPS rear panel.
3. Plug the other end of the power supply cord into a grounded,
three-wire, AC receptacle that has been wired in accordance
with NEC specifications.
The UPS performs diagnostic tests and enters Normal mode
with the equipment (load) offline. The
indicator remains
lit. The startup should take about 15 seconds.
4. Press and hold the Output
On button until you hear the UPS
beep (approximately one second).
The indicator remains lit and the Self Test indicator turns
on. The front panel displays the percentage of fullload being
applied to the UPS. The UPS is now in Normal mode with the
load online. See “Normal Mode” on page 42 for more
information.
